If \(f\) is a relation from set of positive real number to the set of positive real numbers defined by \(f(x)=3 x^2-2\), then \(f\) is

  1. A one-one but not onto
  2. B onto but not one-one
  3. C a bijection
  4. D not a function
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) not a function

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(w) \(f: R_{+} \rightarrow R_{+}\) \[ f(x)=3 x^2-2 \] As \[ \begin{aligned} & x \in(0, \infty) \\ & 3 x^2-2 \in(-2, \infty) \end{aligned} \] But co-domain of \(f\) is \(R_{+}\). Hence, \(f\) is not a function.
